  1. Which type of Acronis license is required to protect a VMware vSphere environment using agentless backup at the hypervisor level?

    Answer: Virtual Host license or equivalent VM-aware license

    Agentless backup of VMware vSphere requires a Virtual Host license that covers the ESXi host, enabling protection of all VMs on that host without per-VM agents.

  2. A company subject to FINRA regulations needs to ensure backup data cannot be deleted by any administrator for a minimum of 6 years. Which Acronis capability addresses this?

    Answer: Immutable storage with WORM compliance enabled

    WORM-enabled immutable storage in Acronis prevents any user, including administrators, from deleting or modifying backup data during the defined retention period.

  3. What must an Acronis-certified partner provide to an end customer before processing their personal data for backup services under GDPR?

    Answer: A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) outlining roles and data handling obligations

    GDPR Article 28 requires a Data Processing Agreement between the controller (customer) and processor (service provider) before any personal data processing begins.

  4. Acronis Cyber Protect's 'Notary' feature assists compliance by providing what capability?

    Answer: Blockchain-based proof of data authenticity and integrity

    Acronis Notary uses blockchain technology to create tamper-proof certificates that prove a file's authenticity and integrity at a specific point in time.

  5. In the context of Acronis licensing audits, what is the primary document an organization should maintain to prove license compliance?

    Answer: License purchase receipts, activation keys, and software asset management records

    During a software audit, organizations must produce purchase records, activation keys, and a software asset management inventory proving the number of licenses purchased matches deployment.

  6. Which regulatory framework requires healthcare organizations to have a documented Disaster Recovery Plan, which Acronis backup solutions help fulfill?

    Answer: HIPAA Security Rule

    HIPAA's Security Rule (45 CFR §164.308) requires covered entities to have a contingency plan including data backup and disaster recovery procedures.

  7. When deploying Acronis in a multi-cloud environment, what licensing consideration ensures compliance across both on-premises and cloud workloads?

    Answer: Cloud workloads require separate cloud-specific licenses or a hybrid license bundle

    Cloud and on-premises workloads typically require separate license entitlements or a hybrid bundle that explicitly covers both deployment types.
